Efficient handling of feature updates and user management with supportive customer service
Adobe Sign is very easy to use, and anyone can easily understand and use it independently. If I teach them once, that's sufficient. They can easily grasp it by themselves, but I still make documentation every time I learn new key points or processes. I also create videos for easier access for all users on a common SharePoint site, where people can easily view the processes if they forget, which is beneficial after taking time off for vacations. The initial setup of Adobe Sign is very straightforward and not complex, making it easily understandable. The customer support team from Adobe is very responsible. Whenever I raise a request in Adobe Sign, especially regarding documents that miss content, they clearly explain that large documents sometimes cause issues, and recommend converting the document into a PDF file before sending it for signature, which resolved the issues we faced. They respond immediately whenever I raise a request.

A stable solution that provides businesses the ability to create and secure documents whenever needed
The administrative user interface used to create users and track templates and envelopes for our product is outdated. Now we're on the AssureSign side and not the Nintex side, so I don't know if they are different products. If Nintex AssureSign is one product, then they have given it an outdated feel and look. If I had more experience with other similar programs, like DocuSign, that I used years ago, I might have been able to give more concrete or better feedback on what additional features are to be included in the tool.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Adobe Sign is highly reliable and offers additional features such as 25-year retention filters and audit capabilities."
"It makes it very easy to sign documents."
"Adobe Sign is a reliable product with good support and a continuous improvement process in place."
"I adore using Adobe Sign since it feels intuitive and user-friendly. Its organic design makes it effortless to navigate, so even if you lack experience with Adobe software, you can quickly learn and use it accurately."
"Regarding the most valuable feature of the solution, I would say that it is easy to use."
"The ability to sign digitally is very convenient."
"I give the stability a ten out of ten."
"I would recommend this solution to other people. It is an easy-to-use solution and one of the best."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten because they really help us."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"The UI has room for improvement."
"One limitation of Adobe Sign is the restriction of adding only one email address for an Adobe Sign account. This can cause issues at times because Adobe Sign does not permit multiple signed accounts with the same email address."
"The support could improve in Adobe Sign."
"Last year we were informed that the integration between SharePoint and Adobe Sign was expiring in July 2024, prompting us to create a Power Automate flow to automate agreements in Adobe Sign using Power App and Power Automate flow inbuilt with the SharePoint site."
"The price of the solution could improve for certain plans."
"I think that the performance could be better and so could the auto-updates when filling in new columns and information."
"It works. I have no notes for improvement."
"The solution could always be more secure."
"The solution's initial setup process was a bit complex…The administrative user interface used to create users and track templates and envelopes for our product is outdated."
"Currently, merge mapping can only be done within a specific object. If we want to do a merge mapping for related objects, we need to create a lot of automation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"One area where there is room for improvement is the pricing of the entry-level plans. If you have minimal requirements for electronic signatures, the initial plans may not be suitable for SMBs as they may appear expensive. However, once you start using Adobe Sign, you can see a positive return on investment. Nonetheless, the pricing of the entry-level plans could be improved to cater to businesses with lower signing needs."
"The free edition allows us to use the signature feature."
"As of now, there are no monthly expenses involved in the solution."
"Adobe Sign is not expensive, but it is premium-priced based on the specific features required. The value you get from the numerous features and free unlimited support, including expert advice, is worth considering when looking for value for money. Unlike licensed components, when you purchase Adobe Sign, you're not just buying support; hence, you won't be faced with any unexpected licensing costs for additional support."
"AssureSign offers comfortable prices that are more affordable for clients. This is why many clients are attracted to AssureSign, as it is a cost-effective tool."
